Explore the transformative discussion paper, 'Water Rights for Ng?i Tahu,' authored by Te Maire Tau, published by Canterbury University Press. This comprehensive analysis delves into one of New Zealand's most pressing issues: the contentious debate surrounding water rights. Water is claimed by the Crown as a resource that no one owns, yet its allocation and management are tightly controlled by local governments under Crown regulations. This disconnect raises important questions about ownership and rights, particularly for the Ng?i Tahu iwi, who have historically grappled with these issues. In this essential read, spanning 74 pages in a convenient paperback format (148 x 210 mm), Tau investigates the historical and political frameworks that shape current water ownership discussions. He emphasizes the importance of customary rights, legal precedents, and the Treaty of Waitangi in the debate over water rights for Ng?i Tahu. The book offers crucial insights into the Crown’s historical land purchases, which neglected to mention water rights, prompting deeper inquiries into current claims and the role of kaitiakitanga in promoting mana motuhake and tino rangatiratanga. As the environmental situation escalates, understanding these frameworks is more important than ever. Order 'Water Rights for Ng?i Tahu' today to engage in this vital conversation about the future of water ownership and usage in New Zealand. We are happy to combine shipping.

There is perhaps no issue in New Zealand today more contentious than water rights. The Crown claims that no one owns water, but its use, irrigation and treatment are controlled by local governments empowered by the Crown. Since the 1990s resource consents for the taking of water, in Canterbury and Southland especially, have increased dramatically and the environmental situation is reaching a breaking point. After years of discussion some kind of system regarding the ownership of water is inevitable. In Water Rights for Ng?i Tahu, Te Maire Tau considers the historical and political framework that has contributed to the current state of water rights in the Ng?i Tahu takiw?. He explores the customary, legal and Treaty frameworks that feed into the debate regarding the ownership of water. From 1844 to 1864 the Crown purchased more than 34.5 million acres of land from Ng?i Tahu, but in most purchase deeds water is not mentioned. How does this play into claims to water? Should the Treaty be relied upon? How far can kaitiakitanga take us if the goal is mana motuhake and tino rangatiratanga? In this short book Te Maire Tau lays out the historical background and context to water rights, and opens a discussion about where to proceed next in determining a Ng?i Tahu position on water.

* Horrible eye pain! * Made my face glow! Great for dry skin as a moisturizer spf
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Update* After actually wearing it all day reaction - I wore this in the semi-sun to the beach just to walk to shoreline, not actually sitting in sun or getting into water just a 30 minute walk, and by one hour in my eye started to swell and both eyes were in horrible pain. I had to go was my face and eyes as well as put in repeated cosine to help my eyes. My eyes even over night after thorough washing and cleaning still have a slight pain to them. This also clogged some pores and made me itch and break out. I think if you are going to be in AC and no hint of sun or sweat this would be okay. However if you are buying to walk around in any kind of sun this may not be it. For me personally I will be returning. I was hoping this would’ve worked for me. I love neutrogena products but the reaction to my eyes impossible to use for me. First initial opening and putting in my face reaction- Very light weight. Smaller size than I realized. Makes my skin have a sheen soft glow. I would highly recommend for those who have dry skin. If you have naturally oily skin this may have a little too much sheen in it for you all. It does make my face feel absolutely baby soft. I was looking for a moisturizing spf for my face that doesn’t turn my skin white or cake on and over my skin and this is great. I will try it in the sun today and see how it lasts and works. No white at all which I absolutely love. Feels great in my skin. Fragrance free has barely any smell to it which is also nice. Oxybenzone free. It is slowly drying into my skin which is nice. I do not believe it is water or sweat proof so you will have to reapply. It hasn’t hurt my eyes so far but I will update when I am out in the sun to share more feedback if this feedback isn’t the same. Overall very happy.

Lightweight, non-greasy, and perfect for daily use”
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 55
This sunscreen is perfect for daily use. It has a very lightweight texture and absorbs almost instantly without leaving any greasy or sticky feeling on the skin. I love that it doesn’t clog pores and works well under makeup. It provides great sun protection while keeping the skin feeling clean and comfortable throughout the day. Definitely a reliable option if you’re looking for an effective, non-greasy sunscreen.
